Form 990, Part III, Line 4A, Program Service Accomplishments - ContinuedVisit Tampa Bay is a partner-based economic development organization, serving just under 1000 local businesses through sales and marketing opportunities, including sales leads, client referrals, cooperative marketing programs, and promotional exposure that allows partners to benefit from the $9.5 billion in total (direct, indirect, and induced) economic impact generated by visitor spending. Tourism generated $6.0 billion in direct visitor spending across Hillsborough County during FY25. The fiscal impact of Visit Tampa Bay's efforts reaches local hotels, restaurants, attractions, cultural institutions, museums, shopping centers, airports, cruise lines, parks, transportation providers, and countless other tourism-related businesses. In addition, tourism indirectly supports a wide range of local industries, including distributors, dry cleaners, grocery stores, gas stations, and numerous small businesses throughout the community. During FY25, Visit Tampa Bay continued executing a full-funnel marketing strategy designed to inspire travel, convert prospective visitors into booked travelers, and build long-term destination demand. Through targeted domestic and international advertising, public relations, digital marketing, and content campaigns, the organization strengthened Tampa Bay's position as one of the nation's premier travel destinations. Visit Tampa Bay also generated significant earned media exposure in key domestic and international markets while driving visitation through strategic partnerships and destination storytelling. Visit Tampa Bay hosted meetings and conventions that generated substantial economic impact for Hillsborough County. Working collaboratively with the Tampa Convention Center, area hotels, and local venues, the convention sales team continued aggressive sales outreach through industry trade shows, sales missions, client events, familiarization tours, and cooperative marketing initiatives while securing future business that will generate continued economic benefits for the destination. These collective efforts helped attract more than 28 million visitors to Hillsborough County during FY25, generating $6.0 billion in direct visitor spending and $9.5 billion in total economic impact. Tourism supported nearly 62,000 local jobs and generated approximately $691 million in state and local tax revenues, helping fund essential public services while strengthening the local economy and enhancing the quality of life for residents.
